@zapatas_mom Condos typically are a poor investment. HOA fees can be astronomical, & if the board doesn’t properly manage its finances there’s always the possibility of Assessments which frequently reach into 5 figures. Plus HOA fees typically aren’t tax deductible, SFHs are a better choice.

Americans… this is a good faith question. I’m not baiting or trolling. Why are you so scared of condos and walkable cities? Does not having to drive for your groceries freak you out? What about it makes you uncomfortable? Please be honest.

@Buccigross Peppermill or Tacos El Gordo

I can confirm it's hard to find food in Vegas at 10:45. What happened to this place!?

@Puppieslover ❤️

Don’t scroll without leaving a big heart ❤️

@nypost 🤮

@Tyre_94 Going overseas is a bit much, we have legal brothels here in Nevada. The World Famous Mustang Ranch is about a 20 minute drive from Reno. Courtesans must be tested weekly, way safer than taking your chances in Bangkok!

I don’t understand flying 15+ hours and spending thousands to get laid lol. Sex tourism is loser behavior because Katie at the local dive gone bust it down for free if you ain’t a weirdo

@MonstersOfRock It’s gotta be Charlotte the Harlot! Even better if they play 22 Acacia Avenue and Hooks in You right after!!!

@marctorrence Can definitely do this in SF, I’ve walked many a times from Potrero Hill to Dogpatch, through Mission Bay and along the Embarcadero to the Wharf, up and over the hill at Fort Mason and up Fillmore to Pacific Heights. Definitely needed to stop for a 🍺or 3 along the way!

This will sound like an obnoxious “only in New York thing” but randomly deciding to walk 6 miles home from work because it’s a nice day and you want some fresh air is really an amazing experience you can’t get anywhere else

@Jabz_CFC Youngblood!!!

Which Movie introduced you to Keanu Reeves? 🎬

@VinnysCorner1 Seton Hall should be Tier 4, not Tier 5. We were one terrible, awful, no good foul call away from a National Championship in 1989. Multiple Sweet 16s since an a bevy of NBA players (Dalembert, Delgado, Mamu) since. Definitely not a Blue Blood but certainly not mediocre.

Is this accurate or na?

@MikeGrinnell_ @UNLVRebelHockey @GameNotesBud You gotta head over to Cugino’s Pizza right across the street on Maryland Pkwy, best pizza in Las Vegas, hands down 🍕🍕🍕

About to go live from the @UNLVRebelHockey hockey house in Vegas. These kids live in paradise. Frozen Four preview coming. @GameNotesBud

@romanhelmetguy Folks in these states need to start preparing NOW. Trump’s idiotic war in Iran has guaranteed a Dem majority in both houses of Congress following the midterms + a Dem President in ‘28. Early ‘29 legislation will be introduced to legalize Exit Taxes & a packed SC will uphold.

Congress has the full power to stop this. It can regulate interstate commerce. Moving your wealth across state lines should not be a taxable event. That’s against the spirit of the United States.

@CoreyLewis86 Spot on. GM’s 6.2L V8 is a huge POS, I assume that motor is responsible for the vast majority of problems with Chevy, GMC and Cadillac. Buick’s flagship Enclave gets a Turbo 4cyl. I have a 2012 Enclave with a N/A V6 and absolutely love it, upgrading to a 2026 Enclave ST come Fall

The gulf between Chevrolet and GMC has never made sense to me. But what does make sense is how Buick is more reliable because it doesn't offer trucks like Chevrolet or GMC or Cadillac.

@Mr_PeterM I have a 2015 Q7, styling still stands out against current model Bimmers, Benzs and Porsches burn holy f*ck does the 3.0 Supercharged motor burn oil. I burn a quart every 500-1,000 miles. I only take her out when there’s chain controls over Donner Pass or Echo Summit.

Which one has aged well?

@60Minutes HSR would absolutely work from SF to Reno. Currently your choices are a $350 one-way flight from SFO on United or sitting in soul crushing traffic on 80. People would love being able to get from the Bay Area to the Tahoe Basin by HSR, instead of sitting on Amtrak for 8+ hours.

Brightline wants to build America’s first bullet train linking Los Angeles and Las Vegas. But financial struggles on their Florida project have raised questions about whether private rail can succeed in the United States. cbsn.ws/3Q5bKnv

@Jalopnik Any Cadillac. I had a 2009 SRX with the Northstar V8, mechanics used to hide when that thing pulled into the garage. They were a nightmare to work on, I replaced all the ignition coils, spark plugs and fuel injectors and the engine still grenaded at 135K. Never again.

Have you ever owned a car that made you question your life choices?

@idecypher Man, I really hope this is rage bait. $13K for Paint Protection Film & Undercoating is the ripoff of the century. If this is real & you financed the car, you might be able to file a complaint w/ your finance company, most won’t allow nonsense like this and you might get a refund.

just bought my #firstcar #2026 #😝

@CARandDRIVER Yawn. Until a drop top version is available, the Z is a pointless exercise.

The 2027 Nissan Z NISMO finally offers a manual transmission, and the standard Z earns a modest facelift. The NISMO also inherits the Nissan GT-R's front brakes, and there's a new paint color called Shinkai Green Pearl Metallic.

@MCCCANM Can Sacramento Int’l Airport handle additional traffic?

In 2001, the SFO airport released a study concluding that new runways needed to be built in the bay to separate traffic & reduce the need for visual approaches. The new runways would be far enough apart that parallel approaches could be made even in bad weather. To offset any environmental effects, they would preserve vast stretches of wetlands. The proposal was supported by politicians & airline executives, among others. Environmentalists killed the plan. 25 years later, the FAA effectively kneecapped the airport by restricting parallel approaches. Will SFO now build the new runways? I doubt it. CA can’t actually build things. High-speed rail boondoggle, the 2014 bond that was supposed to build 10 new reservoirs (9 are now cancelled, the last has not begun construction & may never), wildlife bridge, a capital renovation where politicians refuse to reveal the costs & un-auditable homeless spending. Even if a proposal was made today & put before voters, would I support it as a resident? No. Not because SFO doesn’t need it – it does – but because the project would take the trajectory of every other California project & just become a black hole for money to mysteriously vanish into with nothing to show for it while politicians refuse to audit it. The state can’t afford it anyway. We have a looming fiscal crisis unfolding slowly, but it will accelerate soon. So, I’m sad. SFO is kneecapped, the region’s existing infrastructure can’t absorb the overflow & I don’t believe it can build. There is a future here, but its a future of decline. My airline career here isn’t over, but the trajectory has changed. I doubt I’ll be displaced from the left seat, but the days of growth are over.

@Motor1com The Saturn Vue was the most underrated car of all time. Cheap, reliable, could haul a bunch of people and stuff, great on gas, and, dare I say it, actually fun to drive. If GM hadn’t killed Saturn, these days they’d be selling like mad.

does anyone have any really terrible car takes? i'm talking like, indefensible. absolute dogwater.

@VegasUncomped Ate at Letty’s once, food was okay but it was so damn loud in there I walked out with my ears ringing like I’d just seen Slayer rip through a 30 song set. If exploding Margs only make it to #2 on the sh*t list, what the heck is #1?!?

Glass exploded all over me. They blamed me. Then charged me for it. Food tastes like shit! Vegas local hospitality? NOPE! Welcome to Letty’s in 2026. Never thought I would hate this place. Be honest… You paying for all that… or we arguing? Spent all night on the 🚽
